Lately
it seems like every time Ray turns around, one of his friends is falling in
love. It’s not that he’s jealous, okay
maybe a little; it’s just that sometimes he wishes he could find the love of
his life too. Then he meets Zeke.

Papa’s Boy is the newest story in the Morning Report series. In this new story, readers are introduced to
Ray and Zeke. Ray is friends with the
men of the Lost Cow Ranch and knows what some of the others went through when
they met their life partners. While he
would like someone to come home to every night, he doesn’t see that ever
happening. Ray is a little at loose ends
because of all the changes that have
been happening lately and the author does a great job bringing the way he feels
across believably. I liked this
character and could understand why, at times, he felt like a third wheel.

Zeke
is a new character to the series and one I was surprised to see pop up in a
story of his own. Zeke has a lot of
issues and once the readers get to know this character’s history, they will
have no problem understanding why he acts the way he does. I was
shocked by some of the things Zeke went through and could not get over the
treatment he suffered at the hands of his family.

The
relationship between the two men is not an easy one and I must admit, at times,
I almost wanted Ray to forget about Zeke.
Of course, these two finally get together and when they do, the pages
really heat up.

As
if the author did not feel she threw enough into Papa’s Boy to hold the readers interest, there is a side story that
involves a young man by the name of Lee.
Readers may remember Lee from the previous stories and the things that
happen to him here had me close to tears.
I hope the author plans to give Lee his own story soon. I also thought the author wrapped up the story
line wonderfully and loved how she brought a close to Zeke’s story.

While
these stories could possibly be considered stand-alone books, I would highly
recommend that you read them in order.
Each of these books was a great story to read and I plan on reading each
again.
